Down Syndrome Association of Connecticut

Our mission is to encourage intentionally inclusive communities while providing resources and support to individuals who live with Down syndrome and their advocates.

We believe every person has inherent worth and dignity regardless of ability or disability.

All individuals have the right to direct their future; have control over how they live their lives, where, and with whom; and have authority over the resources that support them.

Individuals who have Down syndrome, their families, professionals, service providers, and the general public should receive accurate and timely information about the rich lives of individuals who have Down syndrome from prenatal diagnosis through birth, childhood, and adulthood.
